The shape and tails of partial distribution functions (PDF) for a climatological signal, i.e., the El Niño SOI and the turbulent nature of the ocean–atmosphere variability are linked through a model encompassing Tsallis non-extensive statistics and leading to evolution equations of the...

The complex structure of a typical stratus cloud base height (or profile) time series is analyzed with respect to the variability of its fluctuations and their correlations at all experimentally observed temporal scales. Due to the underlying processes that create these time series, they are...
